My Loc inspiration

No.3

My Loc inspiration is *drum roll* Tracy Chapman xD Isnt she beautiful! Her music touches my soul and her locs are beautiful. What an amazing talented woman. When I first came across the song Fast car, I originally thought it was a man singing. The voice gave me goosebumps, So when I got home later that day I typed some of the song lyrics that I remembered into google, and I found the song was by  someone called Tracy chapman, I was extremely shocked to find out she was a woman. The first thing I noticed was the smile because the first picture I saw of her was no.3. Then I saw her locs and I thought they were the most beautiful thing! and in my head I was telling myself I want locs like this, ( that was about 1 year ago and I still had relaxed hair at the time) who would have known that  year later i'd be getting loc. So yeah  in many ways she inspired me to start my locs!

I definitely want my locs to be abit thicker than hers though, cause her hair seems to be alot thicker than mine, I would love to have that size but I dont think my hair could withstand that it,  and I know thinning locs happen to people of all loc sizes, but I dont want to take the chance. Also she must have over 100 dreads on her head and that's alot to maintain yourself, again I am an art student which Is one of the reasons why I wanted to loc my hair because I know I wont have the time.  I plan to go to the loctician to start them and then retwists for the first 3-4 months but from then on I will be maintaining myself! Basically when they get to the point where they arent unravelling for my loctician, I will be maintaining them myself.
